Three screaming/tongue out of mouth headsculpts but not a single serious looking face or unmasked face? Disappointing. Also wish Eagley had a 2nd headsculpt of him screeching since he so often did that in the show. Eagley was so awesome.

I see his Desert Eagle in the holster, but it's not listed as one of the weapons, does that mean the gun is NOT removable?!?!

Hmmm.... that's concerning. No photos of it unholstered with him using it in action. It's definitely possible it is just permanently holstered, per WB's ridiculous no guns policy now. For a high end $200+ collectible figure like that that only ADULTS will be buying ONLINE, there should be NO restrictions like that. I was already going to pass on the figure because of the lack of a regular expression face sculpt, but a non-removable gun just confirms my lack of purchase.

I was initially excited to see this but after looking at it a lot, this may be one of Hot Toys' worst efforts.

Yeah, according to Figure Collecting for Dummy on Facebook, he said he asked and was told it's molded to the holster. |

On a related note, does anyone know if there's any good 1/12 scale eagles out there made by any company that I could get to go with my McFarlane Peacemaker figure? I was thinking maybe Schleich might have one but I'm not sure if it scales properly with 6-7" figures.

Imagine buying a high-end collectible that has weapons and accessories molded onto it instead of being removeable.
Oh, wait, now you don't have to! This is garbage. It's not just the weapons. The movie is out, the season is over. There is no excuse for this figure to be bare bones. I don't watch this crap (other than that embarassing Aquaman/Flash exchange) so I'll take dukefett's word that there's a pile of missing/inaccurate items. This is just a $250 cash grab, eventually these things will catch up to toy companies. |

Well it looks as annoying and obnoxious as the character was on the show (I only made it through the first episode) so... good job? lol.

I loved the show and look forward to season 2. The tone of it reminded me of Ash vs. The Evil Dead with its hilarious vulgarity and silly over the top comic book violence. Peacemaker is as macho and dimwitted at times as Ash if Ash was a costumed superhero. Vigilante's sociopathic lack of empathy was ridiculously funny and Eagley was so amusing in his little character moments. And the opening credit dance routine is easily one of the best openings of a TV show ever.

Speaking of which, Dee Bradley Baker - the voice behind Captain Rex, The Bad Batch and all the clone troopers is actually the voice behind Eagly. I guess you need a professional voice actor to do "eeeeeee... awwwrk......" Ha ha. |

I forgot another nitpick is that Cena is one of the few people that would legitimately need jacked TBLeague musclebound arms to look correct. |

Show was awesome (totally love the Ash comparison someone made) but man they botched the head sculpt here. Come to think of it McFarlane did too. What is it about John Cena's face that is apparently so difficult for toymakers to capture?

Just read the product listing, folks. One head sculpt with 2 interchangeable helmets and a magnetic tongue.
I have found this site to be mostly unbiased and resists from giving personal opinions of releases to simply provide the latest news but they’re certainly correct about this headsculpt being a baffling choice from HT. It would be a great accessory of the main sculpt was a stoic, unmasked Cena head. SooSoo will do it way better. |

Yeah I feel like I'm doing a bit from the show if I complain that his arms should be bigger and more defined lol but they really should be.

My favorite scene was when he had a sword and axe… oh wait.
WB’s no guns policy for toys and collectibles is ass. Just ass. |

Dead Company and WB are two of the dumbest businesses on the planet. You hope that the merger with Discovery will change things but I doubt it.

OMG, no gun? I was hoping that at least the high end collectible world would be spared of this nonsense...

Ok I gotta admit, the magnetic tongue in the open mouth so you can place it in different positions is really rather smart. But the whole no-guns policy is of course still really silly and dumb, especially that it's affecting >$200 collectibles like this.
